Duck Down Records is a New York-based record label for hip hop music, founded in 1995 by Kenyatta »Buckshot« Blake and Drew »Dru-Ha« Friedman. The Independent label is focused on Hip Hop and after 16 years it includes artists like KRS-One, Cypress Hill, Heltah Skeltah and Pharoahe Monch. Despite the New York roots, it has been one of the labels, which were repected by the »other camp« at times of the East Coast/West Coast conflict. This respect went so far, that they even recorded the unreleased album »One Nation« with Tupac. 2011 Duck Down Music 3D was founded, a music marketing company with an own distribution, specialized in the indie szene.
